What Is A Course In Miracles
History of A course in miracles:
A Course in Miracles began with the unexpected choice of two people to join in a mutual goal. Their names were William Thetford and Helen Schucman, Professors of Medical Psychology at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City. They were everything but spiritual. Their connection with each other was tough and often tense, and they were worried about professional and personal status and acceptance. Overall, they had a significant outlay in the values of the world.
Over the previous 34 years, David Hoffmeister has traveled to 44 countries across 6 continents to spread the message that reality is available for everybody. His experiences that are founded on A Course in Miracles have been translated into 13 languages and engaged into the hearts and minds of millions through the friendly style of his books, audios, and videos.
What is ACIM:
ACIM makes a fundamental difference between the unreal and the real; between perception and fact. Knowledge is truth, under one law, the law of love or God. Truth is unchangeable, everlasting, and unmistakable. It can be unrecognized, but it cannot be changed. It applies to all that God created, and only what He created is real. It is past learning since it is beyond time and process. It has no contrary; no beginning and no end. It purely is.
The world of perception, on the other hand, is the world of time, of revolution, of development and conclusions. It is based on belief, not on evidence of Spirit. It is the world of birth and death, founded on the belief in scarcity, loss, separation, and death. It is learned rather than given, selective in its perceptual importance, inaccurate in its interpretations, and unstable in its functioning.
